10 Days tour Kyrgyzstan: Nomads, Legacy, Nature

Unforgettable trip! Kyrgyzstan is a wonderful country! In August you can find snow-capped mountains, greenish valleys, lush forests, rivers and streams with pristine water, beautiful horse and yak pastures in the high mountains, amazing lakes at high altitudes. it is truly a wonderful sight for the eyes! But this is what you can easily find by doing a simple Google search! I would like to talk to you about Mars and Atlas kg. The friendliness and smile with he welcomed us at the airport made us feel immediately at home! The organization of the trip and the choice of accommodations were simply perfect!All accommodation, whether hotel, yurt camp or guesthouse were clean, in beautiful locations and with great food! The stops for tea along the way choesen by Mars near the rivers are a simple memory but one that I will always carry with me for peace and calm! Having mars with us was always a source of knowledge of the place, advice on trails, advice on what to do or not to do, advice on food(we immediately asked him not to eat strange things and so it was ????). Before leaving, I thought that spending so many days always in contact with a guide would be heavy. Instead, the days passed too quickly and above all in a pleasant way! In the course of the journey, Mars has gone from guide to friend. A friend I hope to see again soon!!!

This was truly the trip of a life time. Kyrgyzstan is a simply stunning country and Mars at Altas.kg showed us the best of it. Initially we had thought that maybe 10 days would be quite long but in reality it was not nearly long enough. There were so many highlights from this trip, from the beautiful, remote jyrgalan valley, to the red rocks of the fairytale canyons and thr high altitude beauty of Tash Rabat. Every accommodation we stayed in was incredible in it's own way, from hotels with stunning views, to guesthouses that allowed to explore the culture of Kyrgyzstan and (our favourite) the yurts! The nights star gazing, afternoons meandering away hiking, swimming in alpine lakes and the superb hospitality were not memories we will forget any time soon. The food was also superb and, although I expected it to be good, it exceeded my expectations. Mars was such a brilliant driver and guide throughout, informing us greatly, looking after us, adjusting plans to suit us and also he is great at securing a good deal/room for you too. We left feeling that he was a dear friend and we will be keeping in touch. If you're thinking about doing a good tour of Kyrgyzstan, first - do it! Secondly, do it with these guys. We're already planning to come back and revisit.

a private trip for 6 of us , in 2 large confortable four wheels drive cars, we experienced Kyrgyzstan, coached by Mars and Tahal , our host and our driver. from Bishkek where we had our first taste of loacal cusine , to our trip around the Karakul lac, we were blessed to be there during the Nomade games. Such a beauty , yurts in the plateau in high altitude, colorfull costumes , and horse acrobatics, were some of the events we had witnessed. Aside of the games, we wnet up mountains, stay in Yurts, have wonderful time in seclude lodges , and enjoyed horse ridding . Not to forget expereinced picknic prepared by our hosts , along a mountain stream , alone , just us , such a private trip. We went up high in the mountain, top of a sky resort, and we did that with the crew operating the lifts , kind enough to start the whole thing for just 6 of us. Unforgettable. I wish to many to try , hoping that these pristine places will remain so for a long time. Thanks Mars and Tahal, we will not forget you (how , we took more than photos) and hope that we may again come to this still virgin country
